It looks like drones are here to stay. More company are exploring how to use robotics to make business more efficient and cost effective. In 2 -3 years time, I am sure when drone technology becomes more mature, safe and reliable we will see more application for them.

In a few hours time (GMT+2) 11/9/2015, DJI will be launching a brand new camera for the Inspire 1. It looks like a Micro Four Third Camera with a 17mm lens from Panasonic/Leica Summilux F1.7 Aspherical lens. This is equivalent to a 34mm full frame focal length. At this focal length, it has close to zero distortion. This is like flying the GH4 in the sky on a small platform. A S900 is required to carry a GH4 traditionally to get the awesome 4K video, and now this is possible with the Inspire 1!

The pricing is rumoured to be around US$1200 – US$1600…… Personally I can’t wait to get my hands on it.

The Inspire Pilots of Singapore was formed recently on 26th August 2015 for the sole purpose of gathering like minded Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) pilots together. Especially those who are flying the DJI Inspire 1 quadcopter.

This website is still under constructions and the exact details of what we are going to do will be announced later.
